How many more years before cd's become passe?
I give it 10 years maybe. Consider that Mp3 and the others out there just don't sound as good. Though I love my Ipod and lossless flak etc. There is just something a great Cd does and great player along with that computer based music hasn't quite ... 
Help. A box beats my Maggie
I agree with allot of the posts here. System matching is vital to getting your music out there best. Maggies are a great speaker, but definately you have to be careful with amp matching. I have a small listening area, I use a meaty sounding tube i... 
solid state gear- leave on?
Barring Global warming and "gassy cows" It is great to leave SS on all the time. I leave my Cd player and did leave my SS amp 24/7 and they do sound better. I can't believe that something that simple makes a difference, but it does. I use tubes no...

Metal cassette's and bias settings?
Maxell tape has always had a better binder and calendering system than TDK did IMHO. Sonic wise I like allot of the TDK tapes better, but the Maxell UD-xl-2 were a fav of mine. Having a Tandberg 3014,Nak ZX-7, and various decks from JVC,Teac,Sony ...
